Man, the losing money thingy had happened with the PS2 as well, and it was the first console in sales out of the 3... Sony's real problem if you ask me is whether they will have the same profit they did with the ps2 on a longer term basis...

The console is jaw-droppingly powerful but waaaaaaaaaaaaaaay too expensive... why get a ps3 when you can get a wii and 4-6 games (or even more, I have no idea regarding retail wii game prices) and have many times the fun?
